This is our sixth year of helping animals and having fun here at SCIFIpawty. We are gearing up to have another great event this year and hope you can all join us in the fun and of course donate what you can to help the cats at One By One Cat Rescue.

Once again we will be booking our favorite bunny chef @ZACKRABBIT to give us a #SCIFIpawty edition of #CookingwifRabbits and hope to have a return visit from the #PAWFLEET group hosting a panel or two as well. Plus we hope to have special editions of both #CAYKCLUB and #KEEPFITS. Stay tuned for more information.

What is SCIFIpawty? Quite simply, SCIFIpawty is the first and only virtual science fiction convention & party hosted by animals for animals on Twitter.com. There are DJs spinning our favorite tunes, bartenders offering up out of this world food & drinks (virtually of course), security (red shirts) to keep the spammers and scammers away, a costume contest, and quizmasters tasking us with fast paced, fun trivia with a chance to win door prizes. All this is achieved through the help of many wonderful volunteers and sponsors.

This event is used to raise awareness of animals in shelters, the need for adoption/rescue as well as raising much needed funds. Last year our event was able to raise over $1579 for the One By One Cat Rescue (This year let’s shoot for $2000). In the past 6 years we have raised over $11k for animal rescues (this number includes our annual Walk for the Animals campaigns too). THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH.

We would love to have you join us for our event. The 2015 6th Annual SCIFIpawty will take place on March 28th from 11am EDT to 11pm EDT. Just sign into Twitter during the event, search for SCIFIpawty to see what is happening and join the fun. All we ask is that you keep it PG & use the hashtag #SCIFIpawty in your posts so you’ll show up in the pawty stream.

Once again we will hab a costume contest, trivia questions (with prizes) and door prizes. However, this year we will be adding a charity auction, pawtograph room (auctioned autographs) and celebrity panels (more info about each of these will be coming shortly).

If you can help in any capacity (prize sponsor, Q&A during event, anything) please contact our event host @BorisKitty on Twitter, facebook or directly via email.

This year’s event will agin be happening on facebook (but in a much smaller capacity) — for the whole party experience please join us on Twitter.

One by One Cat Rescue is a small 100% volunteer group that helps cats not only in their own area but from different (high kill) states as well. Here is why One By One is near and dear to Boris Kitty and his family: Why One by One Cat Rescue?

Here is a recent post from One By One Cat Rescue on their facebook page. They need our help and we hope the 2015 6th Annual SCIFIpawty can help them help more kitties!

Last year we were hit with some big loses and this year the anipal community continues to see great pals and their humans crossing the rainbow bridge. Please post your fond memories for your lost pals here for da SCIFIpawty community to light candles, say pwayers or simply honor dem in our thoughts.

Since the beginning of SCIFIpawty ThinkGeek.com has been der and we lub dem for it! Over the years they have given us so many PAWSUM items to use for our fund raising efforts and this year is no different. (except for the fact they we will be auctioning some items instead of using them as doorprizes this year — One By One needs all the moneys they can get to hel those precious kittehs out).

PLEASE show them lub by stopping by and saying hi & by following der social media accounts. (Oh and by running to ThinkGeek.com and buyin tons of fings too.)

No Starch Press puts out some pawsum geeky books on things like computers and my fav LEGO! Last year and this year they stepped up to help the kittehs at One By One Cat Rescue by donating a bunch of pawsum books. We will be offering some of these as door prizes and some as auction items (to raise even more money for 1×1 with charity auctions on eBay).

Say thanks to No Starch by following der social media accounts and buying der pawsum books!

Quirk Books really doz publish sum of da quirkiest books out der and we hab read quite a few of dem (like da William Shakespeare’s Star Wars Trilogy). Many of der titles are geeky, scifi-y and kitteh-y so wot izn’t to lub about dem? O, and dey r local to me too (based in Philadelphia YAY).
